How To Use
How to use Care Ibuprofen 5% gel
Always use this medicine exactly as described in this leaflet or as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
Ibuprofen 5% gel is designed for topical (on the skin) application only.
Never take the gel by mouth.
Check the seal is intact before first use (invert cap to break seal).
The recommended dose is:
Adults: Squeeze 4 to 10cm (i.e. 1.6 to 4 inches) of gel from the tube on affected area.
Massage until absorbed. This dose should not be repeated more frequently than every four hours
and no more than four times a day in any 24 hour period. The amount of gel squeezed would be
equivalent to 50 to 125mg of ibuprofen.
Ibuprofen 5% gel should only be used on healthy, unbroken skin. Do not use it on or near cuts or
grazes or under dressings such as plasters. Also, do not use it on the genital area.
Do not let any gel come in contact with your eyes.
If it does, rinse your eyes with cold water and consult your doctor. Hands should be washed after applying Ibuprofen 5% gel, unless they are the site of treatment.
If the condition does not improve after two weeks use, or becomes worse at any time, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
Product Details

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Ibuprofen 5% gel, if you have any of the below:

• If you suffer from bronchial asthma or any allergic disease
• If you have had an ulcer or some other problem affecting your stomach or intestines in the past
• If you have asthma or wheezing attacks (or if you have had asthma in the past)

If you develop a rash after using the gel stop using it any further
